Edinburgh, capital city of Scotland, was designated a World Heritage Site in 1995.

Running through Old Town from Holyrood Palace to Edinburgh Castle is the Royal Mile, along which can also be found St Gile's Cathedral. The new Scottish Parliament building is being constructed in Holyrood, and Arthur's Seat (offering dramatic views over the city) can be found nearby.

Parallel to the Royal Mile is Princes Street, which marks the start New Town. Beyond this is Leith with its port, and further upstream the Forth road and rail bridges link the city with Fife.
